Nothing discloses real character
like the use of power, 1t is easy for
the weak to be gentle. Most peo-
pie can bear adversely. But if you
wish TO know what a man is, give
him power. This is the supreme
test. 1t is the glory of Lincoln that,
having almost absolute power, he
never abused it except on the side
of mercy.
Wealth could not purchase, power
power could not awe, this divine,
this loving man. He knew no fear
except the fear of doing wrong.
Hating slavery, plying the master
seeking to conquer, not persons,b nt
prejudices--he was the embodiment
of the self-denial +; the courage, the
hope, and the nobility of the nation.
He spoke, not to inhame, not to up
braid, but to convince. He raised
his hands, not to strike but in bene-
diction. He longed to pardon. He
longued to see tn epearls Of JOY on the
cheeks of wife whose husband he
had rescued from death.
Lincoln was the grandest figure of
the fercest civil was. He is the gen.
tlest memory of our world. 8

the truth Of tho published statement that his bank
would lose over 100000 by tho failure of the FL
deity National Bank of Cincinnati. I'VE have good
collateral security for much than the bank
